To syndicate an Action Alert

  1. Click Advocacy on the navigation bar and then select Action Alerts to open the Action Alerts List page.

  2. If you have not already done so, create and publish the Action Alert that you wish to syndicate. (You will return to the Action Alerts List page.)

  3. Click Syndicate in the Actions column for the alert you wish to make available to others.

  4. On the Syndicate Alert configuration page that opens:

    1. Click the radio button for Syndicate this Alert to the following Centers.

    2. In the expanded section that opens, select each of the Centers that should receive the alert.

    3. Compose an introduction to the message that will be sent to the Advocacy administrators of the selected Centers -- to notify them of a new syndicated Action Alert.

    4. Click Finish to return to the Action Alert List page.

Note: 1) You can syndicate the same alert multiple times. If you make changes or add additional receiving Centers, such an action may be appropriate. Re-syndication will follow these rules:

If a Center has already Accepted the original syndicated alert, and the alert is syndicated again, the Center will receive a new version on the Syndicated Alerts tab.

If a Center has not yet Accepted the original, the original will be replaced by the new version.

Be aware that if the name of the alert remains the same, multiple syndication of the same alert may be confusing to the receiving center(s).

2) Note, too, that if you save changes to an alert without specifically re-syndicating it, no notification is made, but any center that has not yet accepted the alert will receive the new version.
